Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i5-3450 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-3450 beats the Ryzen 3 3200U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 3200U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-3450 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-3450 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 3200U. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-3450 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 3200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
